>> joe and i have talked about this. stillwater mining. the best way it play that site. >> ticker? >> swc. >> all right, look that one up. >> mjm. mead jorge posa mead johnson. >> i thought you were going to say something else. >> thanks all of you for watching. see you tomorrow. >> "halftime is over." power lunch and the second time of the trading day starts right now. >> scotty, thank you very much. so long to saturday's folks. u.s. post office ending saturday delivery of first class mail. if congress will go for it in but the move has major ram

mications for business and for you. markets right now, pretty steady this hour. energy has been the leading sector in this recent rally. so are these still -- these stocks still a hot play or are they too hot to handle now? if you thought profits were the thing that is the only thing that ceos cared about, think again. we will tell what you is keeping top guys and girls up at night. my partner sue is up at the stock exchange. sue? >> hi, ty. money-losing u.s. postal service is ending saturday delivery of first class mail. all in an effort to trim costs. postmaster general speaking to cnbc about the move and ramifications for you and for business. pearson is in washington with the plan and political fall out. hampton, you're up first. >> losing about $36 million a day, cutting saturday first class delivery will save about

$2 billion a year. it is really the best short term option right now for the postal service with losing $16 billion last year np in the past, congressman dated six day service. but right now, because the government is running on a temporary continuing resolution, that is opening the door for the postal service to act. >> it's our interpretation that the fact that we are with the pr paid for services already rendered, we can move ahead of this. again, there may be people that disagree, that's okay. when you have six or seven weeks to get it right, get it off the books and let's move ahead with the six day package and five day mail. >> a few blocks from where we are at capitol hill, service reform says taking this step is the right thing to do. congressman darrell issa spoke

earlier today. >> stood good day for americans because this is a responsible action by the post office, understanding they've lost -- they're losing tens of billions of dollars each year. they have defaulted on over $11 billion of their obligation. so this money saving smart move is going to be a step in right-sizing the post office. >> now the postal service says about 70% of its customers support the idea of basically ending delivery service on saturday. however at the same time, they say they wouldn't be surprised if there was a lawsuit from say letter carriers or impacted businesses about this proposed change. tyler? >> hampton, thank you very much. speaking of those impacted businesses, what does this move mean for businesses that rely on saturday delivery? brian shactman has that part of

the story. hi, brian. >> as stated, package delivery will remain in place and this is good for both companies. fedex much more closely aligned with the usps. shipping for them for more than a dozen years. fedex gets about $1.5 billion in revenue from the postal service. about a hundred million from ups. on the flip side, it has to be pointed out. fedex handles first class mail for postal service. so volume could be affected at fedex. this the past there's been talk of fedex taking over the package business. as hampton pointed out, that is the one business growing for the united states postal service. next, netflix. dvd as we know. not where their growth is, but still substantial. this will impact weekend viewing. consumers, we're just going to have to plan ahead better if you do get dvds by mail. greeting cards. hall mark, with revenue around $4 billion. they spent a quarter million lobbying issues last year.

back in 2010 the ceo said this. short falls through price increases and reduction of service won't work, will make matters worse, excuse me, end quote. other companies potentially effected. american greetings, they compete with hall mark. rr donnelly and pitney bowes is up today. their stocks are up, a direct mail corporate printing business. and coming up later in closing bell, tyler, we will talk about the newspaper business and how they might be impacted by this move. back to you. >> brian shactman, thank you very much. with more on the short and long-term impact, joining us is christi crihristian wetherbee. what does this move mean for that company? >> i think ultimately it is

about the mail on saturday. that's not really a market that fedex or ups competes in. it carries first class mail, ups on percentage basis, probably carries more relative to their total usps business. but i think ultimately, keeping packages, keeping package service on saturday is a little bit more impactful. if that were to have gone away, there could have been more volume flowing towards fedex or ups. >> which of these two stocks do you prefer at their current prices? >> at current prices we prefer fedex. we have a buy on fedex, we have a neutral on ups. we do have the strong benefiting both players. fedex has profit improvement plan under way with meaningful cost cuts which should generate better profits in their fiscal '14 which starts in a couple months. sue, down to you.

>> take a lock at markets now. holding steady, down side by us since dow jones off about ten points or so on the trading session. steve grasso is with us. good to see you. >> good to see you. >> we aren't seeing a sell-off. we are seeing more consolidation. >> the other day when we chatted, we talked about the 1500 level. we still wined up above this level. so it is a huge mental level. the other day we learned that europe is still on the forefront of a lot of investors posts minds, but not overly preoccupied with the notion of the market selling off in the united states. >> what are you watching in terms of headline risks for this market right now? you mentioned europe. how high is that on your agenda for the market? >> it is a higher than it was. i thought we handled it. i'm not being facetious. i thought we handled the europe situation. i thought we stopped everything. i thought it was a nonissue.

the other day it taught us, it is still there and still a risk. >> are you worried about washington? with the sequester moving large? >> you could have asked me that six months ago, i would have said it is a huge issue. but even though we do have divided government, it seems as though, maybe it doesn't look great but seems as though the president is getting his way. >> all right. >> so i guess at the end of the day, it is good for the market short term. day of reconing is still out there but who knows when it does eventually come. >> 001500 on the s&p. >> if we fail it is 1485. >> good to see you. >> good to see you, sue. >> we are watching jc penney. there it is. down to 19.19. the one-day anniversary of

retail retailer. court courtney is at their headquarters in tfexas. >> reporter: we talked about the tough year that it has been in the first year of the transformation. this is just days after johnson reintroduced targeted sales after taking a really hard line and saying that sale was no long ear part of jc penney voe kak larry, reaffirming that jc penney would return to growth in 2013. that is important for investors still hanging off on after the company lost in market cap since february 1st of this past year. he said if he had to do it over again, he would have done it by changing a if you tactics. wall street is starting to worry about cash. early on, johnson said he would be able to self fund the

transformation from start to finish without tapping into the revolving line of credit. i asked johnson if that is still true. >> with the cash we have on hand, we have yet to tap into the revolver. it doesn't mean we wouldn't at some point. >> and that's the first time that johnson has alluded to the fact that it is possible that at some point if needed, jc penney would tap into that revolving line of credit. wall street will find out exactly how much cash is on hand when we hear from the company for fourth quarter a 5er7bings in just a couple weeks from now and after the interview, sue, i asked johnson about the fact he still lives in california when the company is based here in texas with stock down more than 50%. does he still feel it is okay that he doesn't live here with the employees. and he said, i'm here more than i spend time anywhere else. i think that they actually like it when i leave. sue? >> very interesting to say the least. courtney, thank you very much. yeah. he drives a hard bargain in

trying to turn that company around. another retailer on the move, ralph lauren. reporting higher sales during the holiday period. with higher sales in north america and improvement. the company now expects a bigger improvement in its operating profits for theier than initially projected. investors are taking notice and ralph lauren is up on the trading session at $176.32 a share. now with market flash, hi, josh. >> hey, sue. dow transports may have hit a record high yesterday but not every transportation company is enjoying the party. check out the trucking and logistics company. it is getting crushed here today. the worst performer. lower than expected adjusted quarterly profits. analyst, they are not happy. the ones at bank of america cut to underperform and slash price targets to 60 bucks. tyler, over to you.

>> josh, thank you very much. energy stocks have been the leaders in this recent rally. so are the stocks still a smart play. or are they overplayed? one top street analyst is going to give us his top picks and ways to invest right now. and could these rising energy prices kill or dampen the fragile economic recovery. we will explain that when "power lunch" returns.

welcome back to "power lunch." rick santelli here. going nowhere quickly, yesterday upside yields. today is reversing now. week and a half chart shows you we are in a six basis closing range. last week and a half, 95 to 201. today, two-day chart up again. eight-year chart, close to eight-year highes. why? china is recovering and importing more. and less ka pass knit north american lumber over the last five years. tyler, back to you. >> very interesting, rick. thank you very much. from bonds and lumber, the commodity to some other commodities. energy is the leading sector in the recent stock market run-up. while investors are cashing in, consumers of course feeling a bit of the pinch. sharon epperson with the winners and losers. hi, sharon. >> hi, tyler.

we have seen them have gains in the last month of 20 to 30% or more and they are can capitalizing on the growth we have seen in unconventional oil, in oil sands and shale oil in the middle part of the country. it is what gates calls refining renaissance and u.s. refiners are able to produce gasoline more cheaply than elsewhere in the world. that's because the price of u.s. oil right now is just above $96 a barrel. compare that to crude prices from the north sea which is near $116 a barrel. that is $20 discount. the widest we have seen this year and it is makesing gasoline a lot cheaper than it is in other countries. east coast refineries, like new jersey refineries, are shutting down. in the middle part of the country, refineries like the largest one in the midwest from bp spending billions of dollars to expand the refinery so they are able to capitalize on the

canadian and u.s. oil in that country. shut downs we are seeing and plan maintenance and repairs at refineries around the country caused a tightness of supply on the east and west coast. this is trackeling down to the biggest losers in all this. that of course is the consumer. higher prices at the pump are a result as traders here behind me are bidding up the price of gasoline futures. that is having impact on prices at the pump which are now over $3.50 a gallon. if prices stay this high, economists say we could see a significant impact on economic growth and the small recovery that we have been experiencing. sue, back to you. >> sharon, thank you very much. as we mentioned, energy is the leading sector, but are the stocks still a hot play or are they a bit overdone? one of the big experts on this area on the street joins us. good to see you, paul. usually by satellite. nice to have you on the set with us. >> you're one of the smartest guys on the street when it comes

to this sector. no pressure now. no pressure. the basic question we are posing right now is, is there still more room given the big move? you seem to feel that there is. >> yeah. we are looking at a goldy locks situation. what we want are gently rising oil prices. if we get that we have gently rising gdp in the economy and performance of the s&p. that's the call we made at the start of the year. it's been working well without getting too extreme, i believe, which is what we worry about. >> is the strength u.s. economic strength or from the middle east? >> we have a great story here, the exportive oil products going on from the u.s. and that oil, we don't know where it goes or it is going basically to africa and europe for reexport. everything we look at say this is an emerging market given the strength in oil. >> nevertheless, you have to be careful what stocks you put in

your portfolio. tell me why you like some better than others. you would not favor chevron, i believe, over exxon. why? >> once you decide whether you are underweight or overweight, it becomes straight forward. so obviously if you are just wanting to buy all exposure, you could buy exxon. but if you want more direct exposure to the oil prices and strength, chevron is more lever to oil prices. it has more branch exposure, like natural gas. and exxon of course, has the biggest -- >> has the biggest there. >> you also like hes. >> that's right. they outperform when oil does well on the market and that's what we have seen this year hp h hess is interesting because we have someone coming in to shake things up.

>> give me one refiner that you like. >> love holly, loved it for years. very well exposed to the crude we see in the rockies. good oil demand in the rockies as well. better economy out there. >> very quickly, how much higher do you think oil will move because you have a pick on the euro as well. deutsche bank does anyway. >> yeah, interesting deutsche is calling for the euro dollar move. which would imply it is going higher. and the dollar strengthens here. anything more than 120 is a problem for all of us. people are talking about gasoline prices but gasoline prices haven't gone up as much as crude. i think we are getting into the concern once we are above 120. a gentle out performance against the market and that is plenty for us. >> thank you, paul. you you have to come back very soon. >> sure. >> big week for media earnings is upon us. our julia boorstin spoke
